I'm playing on singleplayer, by myself. My question is that if whether or not there is a way to let my mob spawner (which is on a deep ocean biome away from my main area) loaded at all times?
No. You could do that with redstone repeaters and a circuit but then... you'd kinda need to be there so mobs would actually spawn. Mobs can't spawn more than 132 blocks away from the player, if I remember correctly.

Watch out for the crabocalypse. Some say the day will never come. But it will.
Feel free to drop by for a chat whenever.
If you'd like to talk with me about other games, here are a few I play.
Team Fortress 2
Borderlands series (Borderlands 2 is my favorite game, ever. TPS combat is a lot of fun and makes up for the lower-quality story, in my opinion)
Elder Scrolls series
Warframe (IGN is something like That_One_Flesh_Atronach)
Pokémon series (HGSS forever)
Rocket League
Fallout series
Left 4 Dead 2 (Boomer files always corrupt though)
SUPERHOT (SUPERHOT is the most innovative shooter I've played in years!)
Dead Rising series (Dead Rising 2 is one of my favorite games, and the 3rd was a lot of fun. 1st has poor survivor AI and the 4th is bad)
Just Cause series
Come to think of it, I mainly play fighting-based games.
Crap, well that is unfortunate. I really wanted a way for my mob farm to function when I am far away.
Would it be as efficient if I place it in a normal biome, and lighting up everything beneath the spawner? (caves and so on)
Absolutely. That is how I usually make them. It is a bit more work, but I usually make them at my base so I've already explored most of the caves in the area and lit up a lot of the surface anyway.

Close enough. It's actually 128 blocks.

I tried it with terrible results. I gave my wife my glasses for a second, a creeper showed up and now my wife is pregnant.
Stupid 3D..

can you load command blocks from far away?
Says Nathrexeio no body else
If you put them in the spawn chunks they will always be loaded.
(In the Java version without mods.)

Just testing.
